John Florence, Lower Trestles roter, CA
John Florence has been blazing through the Nike Lowers Pro over the past few days. Coming off a coupla ‘qs wins (Margaret River, Pipe) and a standout performance at Bells, kid just gets better and better. He’s been strolling through most heats with an eight in each pocket and throwing some serious heat in the process, like this (landed) backside roter he pasted yesterday. Johnny’s now into the quarters, where he’ll face Tanner Gudauskas tomorrow, which is one you certainly don’t wanna miss. Watch it here.

I think respect will always be had for traditional photography as it has a history and is an essential part of surfing, the pictorial representation of the sport we all love. This is simply an extension of traditional photography. It shouldn't be overhyped, it might appear amazing to the ordinary viewer because it's an unseen angle, but it can't compare to an image taken by a professional photographer whose dedicated their life to the craft, and that's fact...
